From the Sanitary News.
The cremation society at Zurich, Switzer-
land, one Of the best organized associations in
the world, has adopted the Bourry system,
which 10 described as follows: "Like
Siemens, Mr.. Bourry allows only heated air
to communicate with the body. In both sys

by the abundance Of hot oxygen which sur

prepared in q coke regenerstOr, for heating

cremation he uses mainly chimney gases for
heating the air before II touches the corpse,
which allows . more economical use OF the

action is clear and open. Bourry and Nenini
place the crematOriuD, which has the shape
of q sarcophagus, and which can be sp-
preached from all sides in the midst Of the
hall in which the service Is to take place.
There is q little window on the back Of the
sarcophagus through which one can see the
process Of cremation, which is completed
within one to one and one-half hours, with.
out smell or smoke. The process Is solemn
and beautiful, and avoids every up sthetic

Nauthern Iron Comnelition.

A Birmingham, Alabama, letter To the
Pittsburg Dispatch says that it is doubtful
whether last yeaEIs production Of pig iron
IL thouB6th will be equaled this year.
4 TNe chief reason given for this is the in.
efficient labor. Allowing one more year
for obviating this defect, Southern compe-
titiOn is bound to have disturbing effect
on Northern pig iron manufacture. The
letter says: " by that time the number of
active coke furnaces south of the Ohio
river will be more than doubled, taking no
account Of several that are likely to be idle
after completion for lack Of coke supply.
One company expects to ship regularly to
the Eastern seaboard 400 tons daily, in ad-
dition TO increased shipments to Western
markets. Northern furnaces may, by
cheapening of cost, successfully meet this
competition, but they will not prevent it.
The Southern furnaces are going to make
iron for few years to come that is GER
tain, whether profits are realized or not" :"
1t will be we'll to keep an eye on this sec.
tiOn of the country, for slO pig iron is a
verify down there, and they are even talk
ing Of $50 iron. The Northern makers
have big point in their favor by the inter-
state commerce law, which gives them the
benefit Of nearness to market. And the
question of freight is most Important in
pig iron manufacture. But even this ad-
vantage will no doubt be removed in time
BY the industrial development of Alabama
and Tennessee.

In 1885 there was mined in this country

which 4l,4l5,4O tons were taken from

We exported coal to the value of - 575, ,o6..
In 1855 Pennsylvania produced 81 ,6223 =.
529 tons of anthracite coal, the total pro-
duct for the year. Her production of
bituminous coal for the same year was
25,OOO,OOO tons, and Illinois, the next
hrgest producer, shows only 9,79I ,s7i tons
OF bituminOus coal. Ohio comes third
with 100000 tons, then West Vir.
glnia with 3,4ss,457. The smallest coal

4 Story OF Neglect.

-
We publish 70 day careful and unem-
to1llshed account of the old pest-house at.
tached TO the Lancaster county almshouse.
It b certainly not much to the credit of a
civilized community boasting prosperous
churches and vigorous charitable societies
that men should be thrust out to die in
this misery. Would not the smallpox hos.
pital now unused be "a good place for these
Desperate cases Or IL such a move is
deemed unadvisable, and the crowded hos
pital must be relieved, measures should at
HAST be taken to modify the distressing
conditions. Fly screens should at once be
placed in the windows, comfortable beds
and plenty of pillows provided, and some
difference should certainly be made in the
faro Of these sick people. Coffee and bread,
= diet for Q man who can t sleep, certainly
don't sound right.
When church members in good health
looo their tempers in dealing with flies, it
b hard to imagine the misery of man too
weak to defend himself against them. In
The winter this house was quite crowded
and measures should at once be taken to
provide more hospital room. The liberal
and charitable people Of this great county
can not and will not permit the public
charity to be dispensed in this miserable
fashion, for the duty Of caring for our un-
fortunate fellow men, though delegated to
The proper officers, is yet public duty and
the people cannot shirk the responsibility.
II ID the duty Of the press to call attention
70 these matters, of the public to demand
remedy, and of public officials to strive
by constant vigilance to justify the sacred
trust reposed in them by the people.
